If I can use custom Hope rotors with my hayes disk set up? D
do you know.......

That's correct.
oh well I heard that Hope was putting custom writing on the rotors....is anyone else offering this? I think it would be cool to have a little message on my rotors. D
I think you can´t because Hope rotors are thicker than hayes.
Ya, it´s pretty nice to have your name or something else written on the disk, but I think it would suck, you would loose A LOT of braking surface.

The Hope rotors come in 165mm 6 1/2 , 185mm 7 1/2, 205mm 8 1/16 for DH which are odd ball sizes since Hayes runs 6" & 8" rotors. I have a custom one for my bike so does Acadian
can you post a pic of it?
that´s looks so f****ng cool!!!!!!!
how much did it cost you?
Hopefully Monday your new one will be here
Its a 205mm

I normally charge $60.00-$65.00 US for the custom rotors
Damn! that's the sh!t...I will have to find out who does it for hayes.
I know there's someone out there, maybe a Euro-company or something. D

Has a company that makes presission sheet metal and he told me about a guy who lazer cuts any thing out of stainless or most metals I have not really asked him how much they cost but I don`t think they are that much more than the hopeless ( you are save now you don`t have to buy hopes to get the custom rotors )
)
since we´re talking about rotors. Is there any special material in the rotors, or are they just stainless steel?
Some custom rotors on the Foes w/ XT brakes
Nothing beats HOPES
That would be like Jessica Beil getting naked in front of me and not letting me have any fun:crying: :love: :love: :love: :wink: Acadian you have to go to your room for 5 minutes for doing such a bad thing ,BTW the rotors are stainless and I will look into getting some trick ones made

that looks maaaad!! wonder if anyone does that for XT discs.....
They had some custom ones at Interbike
Servus!
I'm still looking for custom/aftermarket stuff for Magura Julie. All I've found is titanium rotors from a local producer (most expensive, tho!
).
Love the dig on the XT discs..... come on Acadian, they're not THAT bad. You could ride Avid Mechanicals or Hayes cable-actuated, for example.....
